Standard Passenger Plates

Dec

Tiger Joe advises that the DLX thru DMA series have a 2011 sticker, not screened. This is consistent with the observations of the Nov. case. The last time this anomaly occurred to his knowledge was in late 2005 (2006 plates for Oct, Nov and Dec that were stickered because they covered the 2007 screened in sticker that first appeared with the drop of the www.) Note that DLX-DMA series has been observed with 2011 sticker.

Nov

This series has been seen up to NMR 986 with the screened 2011 sticker. The NMX series has a 2011 sticker, which probably covers a screened 2012 sticker.

From Tiger: All Nov 2015 plates as naturals use a sticker. This was confirmed for NTL, so should be assumed until a higher number yields the screened in sticker by observation. It is unclear why this is so. Sometimes the DMV will use leftover stock having a previously screened in sticker at haphazard times.

Non-passenger Plates

CY = County owned. Red on debossed white. (In other words, the characters are in white since they are debossed, and the background color is a non-reflective red.) Most commonly appears on school buses.

Temporary - Computer Printed Paper Type

This is the computerized temporary tag, and the number is shared between any service that is qualified to print out and issue such tags, such as higher volume dealers and license services. It negates the need to stock cardboard temp tags as they can be printed out on a computer printer.

Tiger Joe reports that this is a no-cost optional available in person at any DMV branch. It is unclear how long they will be available, and there is no information at all on them on the DMV website. The plate was unveiled on Oct 4th by the Governor Earl Ray Tomblin. The initial order of plates ran through 070000.
